[Endoscopic intraabdominal surgery in gynecology]

Area of Science:

• Minimally Invasive Surgery
• Gynecological Endoscopy

Context:

• Advancements in surgical technology enable abdominal operations under minimally invasive conditions.
• Integration of electrically monitored pneumoperitoneum, cold light optics, and specialized instruments facilitates new operative procedures.

Purpose:

• To introduce and detail a novel spectrum of endoscopic gynecological operations.
• To present the outcomes and benefits of these minimally invasive techniques developed over 10,000 pelviscopies.

Summary:

• The study details modern endoscopic techniques for abdominal surgery, including electrically monitored pneumoperitoneum, cold light optics, mini-instruments, endocoagulation, and intraabdominal ligation.
• Routine endoscopic gynecological procedures include adhesiolysis, tubal surgery, myoma enucleation, ectopic pregnancy management, ovarian cyst enucleation, and endometriosis treatment.
• Non-gynecological applications include omentolysis, bowel adhesiolysis, and appendectomy, demonstrating the versatility of these techniques.

Impact:

• These endoscopic techniques replace traditional laparotomy in up to 80% of tubal and ovarian surgeries.
• The complication rate is approximately 2%, with significant reductions in hospitalization (over 50%) and recovery period (over 75%).
• This approach enhances patient recovery and reduces healthcare resource utilization.
